Hi. Thanks for visiting my portfolio site!
I am a graphic designer and artist at heart with many years experience in branding, marketing, and management. In 2014, I decided to leave my corporate life, and focus on freelance design full-time. Since then, I've been working with several clients on a variety of projects ranging from website development to painting murals, and have recently started working on commissioned drawings and paintings.
Before starting "Grove Design + Marketing," I spent six years as a founding member of a clean-tech start-up company called Tremont Electric. We developed and launched the nPower technology, which converts energy generated from movement into electrical power. As VP of Marketing, my responsibilities included:
Built dozens of websites
Managed product launches
Developed and executed marketing plan
Conducted market research studies
Developed and presented investor pitches
Led public relations efforts
Created all print and digital marketing pieces
Assisted with sales and customer service
I also have 13 years of design and marketing experience with an international, household electronics company where I developed and launched new products, including a disruptive technology that's used to administer insulin to diabetic pets without a needle. I am also the founder and original editor of Mode, a magazine for women in direct sales.
Out of college, I had the opportunity to work with the art directors at Walt Disney in the design and development of Disney-licensed products.
I have a B.A. with a major in Visual Communication and Design from Purdue University (–Boiler Up!), and an M.S. in Management from Indiana Wesleyan University.
